Wow! As we are fortunate enough to say when faced with daunting experiences ,”It could be worse!” Fig and almond biscotti are underway so thanks for this new roundup. Wish I had posted how fabulous the turkey thigh braise was at Thanksgiving. It really was. Thank you so much for all the good things you provide, and the steady, onward perspective you maintain.

Hope all your house renovations/restorations go smoothly and you’re back soon doing what you love in the kitchen.

Thanks as always for so many wonderful recipes......I’ll be making the pecan shortbreads this weekend. They were a favorite last year!
